(SANDUSKY, Ohio) –Murray & Murray Co., LPA, held a dedication ceremony yesterday afternoon, April 24, 2014, to commemorate the firm’s installation of a solar array on the roof of its Sandusky office building and to emphasize the importance of renewable energy. The Murray & Murray array is the largest in Erie County.

U.S. Representative for the Northern Ohio 9th Congressional District, Mrs. Marcy Kaptur, one of the longest standing representatives in the U.S. House and a long champion of renewable energy, headlined the occasion. Representative Kaptur commended Murray & Murray’s efforts in installing the system as, “setting a stellar example for other firms, institutions, and households on how the private sector can lead a constructive transformation of our way of life ...initially, the advanced solar roof installation will produce 1/3 of the power used by the firm and its adjacent marina on an annual basis. The Murray firm is a thriving example of Americans embracing the future and changing our way of life for the better. Restoring America's energy security must be our top strategic priority. Every business, every institution, every household can be an agent of change for America's future security.”

David Miller, of Edison Solar and Wind of Milan who installed the solar array spoke about the dire state of diminishing fossil fuels. As a result, he emphasized the absolute necessity of pursuing renewable energy sources. Mr. Miller later presented Murray & Murray with a framed portrait of the firm’s office and solar array to acknowledge the firm’s efforts and leadership in the area of energy conservation.

Dennis E. Murray, Jr. announced during the ceremony that just this week the system reached the milestone of generating 45,000 Kwh, well on its way to annual production of over 180,000 Kwh.

The firm’s system includes 494 solar panels generating 250 watts. All of the components have ARRA ratings and are almost entirely made in America.
